DOVE OF PEACE. Truce Declared by "Insurgents" and "Regulars.'"-Both Fac tions and the President Give Out Statements. Washington, January 14.-- The -dove of peace succeeded in getting reasonably near a perch to-day on the fild occupied by the warring Repub iean factions of the House, after that 'much-sought bird had been re peatedly frightened away from the sene by the clamor of the 'contend ing participants. When Represen tative Hayes, of California, the me diator for the insurrents, returned to the House after calling upon Presi dent Taft the news circulated rapidly that a truce had been arranged and rA more or less permanent peace in the Republican ranks was about to be -announced. This was considered conflkmed when a statement from the White House and another from Represen tative Dwight, the Republican whip, announcing the details of the armis tice. The peace pronunciamento proved premature, however, for Rep resentative Haye, between nuner 'us conferences with 'his associates announced that no agreement had been reached and that the matter would go over until to-morrow. At this juncture the insurgents gathered in the room of Representa tive Gardner, of Massachusetts, is sued another statement saying that 'an- undrestanding had been reach ed." The statement, which was given Wut by Representative Hayes, fol lows: Insurgents' Statement. "It is true that an understanding has been reaehed that we shall attend the caucus about to be held for the choice of -the Republican members of the investigating committee. The question of future conferenq4es Iowever, is one on which there has been no agreement. In fact, I had no authority from my associates to enter into that question.- Of course, this agreement in no way affects the issue as to the present system of *ontrol of the House of Representa ives.' Mr. Hayes was asked if the word ''we' used in his statement meant all the-insurgents in the House. He replied that it did, and~that all of the insurgents concurred ' in the statement. The Democrats of the House an nounced' towday that they would hold a caucus Saturday night to name the minority members~ of the committee to investigate the Ballinger-Pinchot affair. The Democrats insist upon * their right to name the minority *members of the committee, and if the * majority declines to allow it, there is a prospect of a Democratie-Repub lican-insurgent alliance upon the -question. The insurgents say -they are contending merely for a fair comittee and erre not who are'its members. President Issues Statement. The following statement was given out by President Taft: "it has been agreed between the regular Republicans ands the called insurgents represented by Nf. Dwight on the one hand and Mr. Hayes on the other, after conferences -with the President, that a caucus should be held to pass upon the question of the committee in the in terior department investigation with the assurance that the insurgents, if they came into the caucus, would be treated fairly,. and that a committee of ocknowledged impartiality, be appointed. A further agreement ,was foreshadowed that the caucuses 91houMc be held from time to time, .to which all elected as. Republicans, should be invited to take up the vari ous measuras recommended by theI Administration as performances on. the party pledges, the subject of each caucus to be announced in advance.'' The Statement of Representative Dwight, the Republican whip of the House, concerning the reported un derstanding between the regulars and insurgents was as follows: "Regulars' "Statement. "The questions of the past have been forgotten. The tariff bill is no longer a matter for discussion. The Speakership fight is ended. The. question of the rules is now an issue. Weare confronted with the problem' of redeeming the pledges of the Re publican party to the people. "Last Friday there was a vote in this House which caused a Re publican division. ' Mr. Dwight here referred to the1 vote on the Norris amendment, tak ing the appointment of the Ballinger Pinehot investigating committee from thle hands of Speaker Cannon :nd placing it with the House itself. "That was a matte:' of no conse quience anid a small ob.ject in which the peole could have but little in tet. But it howed a division in the party. The next day I saw Pres ident Taft and laid the matter ;be fore him. "I told the President that the so ,called insurgents were represented as beiag the friends and supporters of the Administration and ready to help enact his recommendations into law. I assured thee President that the reg ular Republicans of the House were ready to do likewise. We also were prepared to go into caucus upon any any proposition and abide by. the re sult. Were the insurgents ready to do the sameT "For the past two days confer ences have been in progress and those who difered from us last Fri day are now ready to enter the cau cus and abide by the decision reached there." Mr. Dwight was asked if the in surgents had been given any definite assurances as to the treatment they would receive in caucus. "No,'" he replied, "except that they have been assured of fair treat ment. They will not be discriminated against." ODD PHASE OF PROSPERITY. Farmers, of Middle West Start New "Onward"" Movement. Abilene Kan., Dispatch to New York Evening Post. "Having sold my farm and being about to leave the country, I will sell at public auction." That is the starting of a vast number of ,an nouncements being made by posted bills in Central Kansas. In former years the bills read simply that there would be a sale, but now in a ma jority of instances -the farmer is about to move to some other locality. These are men of middle life, who have made good savings and have re ceived high prices for their land. They will have when they leave $10,. 000 to $15,000 in cash. They are go ing to every point of the compass Canada, Florida, Texas, California and the irrigated regions of tho mountain States are about equal fa vorites. A few will move to tow7 and rest, but not many. They wan to do over again. what they have don, heretofore, make money from th rise of cheap land. Another curious thing in the sale is that they have begun this year eai lier than 'ever. A few years ag there were no sales until near the ih of March, when the tax assessmen was due: Of late they have been. a dates. nearer the first of the yea: This season they began in Octobec and the past mnoth has kept the au< tioneers busy. In the place of thes farmers are coming others froi States further East-Iowa, Missour Illinois,-and older settled Commor wealths farther away. They pa high prices for the prairie lamd froz the proceeds of their own sales, pre viously made, and they, too, expec further profits. IThis movement has been going oi with increasing activity for flv years, and seems to-day as marked a at any time in the West's history There is no going 'back East to thi wife's folks.''
